}}Meru Wind Power Station, also Meru Wind Farm, is a {{convert|400|MW|abbr=on}} wind-powered power station, under construction in Kenya.[1][2]

Location

The power station is located in northwestern Meru County, near the Meru County–Isiolo County border, south of Isiolo Airport.[1] This location lies approximately {{convert|274|km|0}}, by road, northeast of Nairobi, the capital and largest city in Kenya.[3] The approximate coordinates of the power station are 0°19'47.0"N, 37°35'30.0"E (Latitude:0°19'47.0"N; Longitude:37°35'30.0"E).[4]

Overview

As part of efforts to diversify the national electricity sources, the government of Kenya plans to construct a 400 megawatt wind power station in Meru County. Kenya Electricity Generating Company, the government-controlled power generator will own and operate the power station. The first phase of this power station with generation capacity of 100MW was expected to come online in 2017,[5][6] but delayed due to land disputes.[7]

Development partners

The project's first phase with capacity of 100 megwatts will cost approximately US$270 million (KSh26.4 billion), borrowed from France’s Development Agency (AfD) and Germany’s Development Bank (KfW).[5]
